The values expressed as mean ± SEM. Ao  =  diameter of the aorta; LVSD  =  left ventricular systolic diameter; LVDD  =  left ventricular diastolic diameter; TAWs  =  left ventricular anterior wall thickness during systole; TAWd  =  left ventricular anterior wall thickness during diastole; TPWs  =  posterior wall thickness during systole; TPWd  =  posterior wall thickness during diastole, as assessed by echocardiography in the sedentary sham (SS), sedentary infarcted (SMI), exercised sham (ES) and exercised infarcted (EMI) groups at one week after the MI.

The different letters represent statistically significant differences (P<0.05) in a two-way ANOVA model followed by Tukey's post-hoc test.
